This legacy, which has reached its 101st year, is not just a form of government; it is the guarantee of our freedom, equality, and independence.
The Republic is a gift to us... A symbol of the Turkish nation's will to determine its own destiny.
Keeping this gift alive is a duty for all of us.
However, the Republic cannot sustain its existence on its own...
A great struggle is required to protect, cherish, and strengthen it.
This is a responsibility that rests on the shoulders of every Turkish citizen.
Each of us must act with this awareness… We must hold tightly to the values of the Republic and do everything in our power to ensure our flag waves freely in the sky.
Because the Republic is not just a past; it is a path that extends into the future.
Forever…
Long live the Republic!
